QUESTION 5Drag and Drop QuestionYou need to configure the CoffeeSale fact table environment.Which four actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order. NOTE: More than one order of answer choices is correct. You will receive credit for any of the correct orders you select.Answer:

Explanation:Step 1: Partition the CoffeSale facto table.Step 2: Set the storage mode for all partitions to HOLAP. Partitions stored as HOLAP are smaller than the equivalent MOLAP partitions because they do not contain source data and respond faster than ROLAP partitions for queries involving summary data.Step 3: Alter the processing job to ensure that it rearranges the partition structure each evening.Step 4: Test that the cube meets the functional requirement for data currency and query performance.From scenario:Data analysts must be able to analyze sales for financial years, financial quarters, months, and days. Many reports are based on analyzing sales by month.The SalesAnalysis cube contains a fact table named CoffeeSale loaded from a table named FactSale in the data warehouse. The time granularity within the cube is 15 minutes. The cube is processed every night at 23:00. You determine that the fact table cannot be fully processed in the expected time. Users have reported slow query response times.https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/analysis-services/multidimensional-models-olap-logical-cube-objects/partitions-partition-storage-modes-and-processing

QUESTION 6Hotspot QuestionYou need to configure the project option settings to minimize deployment time for the CustomerAnalysis data model.What should you do? To answer, select the appropriate setting from each list in the answer area.

Answer: Explanation:Scenario:Box 1, Processing option:DefaultProcess Default detects the process state of database objects, and performs processing necessary to deliver unprocessed or partially processed objects to a fully processed state. If you change a data binding, Process Default will do a Process Full on the affected object.Note: Processing Method This setting controls whether the deployed objects are processed after deployment and the type of processing that will be performed. There are three processing options:Default processing (default)Full processingNoneBox 2, Transactional deployment: FalseIf this option is False, Analysis Services deploys the metadata changes in a single transaction, and deploys each processing command in its own transaction.Scenario: The CustomerAnalysis data model will contain a large amount of data and needs to be shared with other developers even if a deployment fails. Each time you deploy a change during development, processing takes a long time.https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/analysis-services/multidimensional-models/deployment-script-files-specifying-processing-options

Case Study #3 (QUESTION 7 – QUESTION 9)BackgroundYou are a developer for a Seattle-based company. The company is expanding globally. Many company employees speak fluent Mandarin and read Simplified Chinese.You have six tabular data models that are deployed to two instances of Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS).Users report that the query takes a long time to complete.You are planning the disk space allocations for a new Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services deployment. You plan to move several relational data file databases to the new SSAS instance. The databases require a total of 10 GB of disk space.You also plan to deploy Cubes and Aggregations and use Object Processing. Cubes will have small fact tables and few dimension members. No unnecessary aggregations will be created. You plan to process an entire cube in a single transaction.Data ModelsOne of the data models is named CustomerSales. This data model contains eight tables. The model includes a table named Sales that defines several measures, including a measure named PriorYearSales. The PriorYearSales measure is referenced by other measures, and is not intended to be analyzed directly by users. You must translate the metadata for all fata the CustomerSales data model to Simplifies Chinese. Team members from the Shanghai office assist with identifying appropriate translations.A data model named OrderAnalysis is deployed to one of the SSAS instances. Order data is loaded into the OrderAnalysis data as part of an overnight process. You observe that the model is not up-to-date.The business analysis team uses a variety of client applications to issue MDX queries against OrderAnalysis. Order data must be completely up-to-date.The OrderAnalysis model has two user-defined hierarchies that are defined in a table named Order. New customers are only added once per day. The overnight process is sufficiently up-to-date for the Customer data to provide optimal performance while achieving the data currency goals whenever possible.DatabasesYou deploy a database named DB1 to an SSAS instance as a project by using SQL Server Data Tools. Data analysts report that they cannot access near real time data from the SSAS SalesAnalysis model from DB1. You discover that the project has been deployed with the Direct Query Mode option set to OFF.Most queries that use the SalesAnalysis data model use data from a table named FactInternetSales that is 20 gigabyte (GB) in size. Cached data must be available for the FactInternetSales table. All queries accessing the SalesAnalysis model must be executed in near real time.

QUESTION 7A database named DB2 uses the InMemory query mode. Users frequently run the following query:You need to ensure no users see the PriorYearSales measure in the field list for the Sales table.What should you do?

A. Create a perspective, and ensure that the PriorYearSales measure is not added to the perspective. Ensure that users connect to the model by using the perspective.B. Set the Display Folder property for PriorYearSales toHidden.C. Remove the PriorYearSales measure from the default field set of the Sales table.D. Create a role using Read permissions, and define a DAX expression to filter out the PriorYearSales measure. Add all users to the role.

Answer: AExplanation:Using perspectives in the data model might help you expose a subset of tables, columns, and measures that are useful for a particular type of analysis. Usually, every user needs only a subset of data you create, and showing him or her the model through perspectives can offer a better user experience.From scenario; The PriorYearSales measure is referenced by other measures, and is not intended to be analyzed directly by users.

QUESTION 8Drag and Drop QuestionA database named DB2 uses the InMemory query mode. Users frequently run the following query:You need to reconfigure the SSAS instance that hosts DB1.Which three actions should perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.Answer:

Explanation:Step 1: Set the default mode for the data model to DirectQuery. You discover that the project has been deployed with the Direct Query Mode option set to OFF.Step 2: Set the mode for the FactInternetSales table’s partition to DirectQueryOnly. Initially, even DirectQuery models are always created in memory. The default query mode for the workspace database is also set toDirectQuery with In-Memory. This hybrid working mode lets you use the cache of imported data for improved performance during the model design process, while validating the model against DirectQuery requirements. From Scenario: Most queries that use the SalesAnalysis data model use data from a table named FactInternetSales that is 20 gigabyte (GB) in size. Cached data must be available for the FactInternetSales table. All queries accessing the SalesAnalysis model must be executed in near real time.Step 3: Run Process Full for the FactInternetSales partition. When Process Full is executed against an object that has already been processed, Analysis Services drops all data in the object, and then processes the object. This kind of processing is required when a structural change has been made to an object, for example, when an attribute hierarchy is added, deleted, or renamed

QUESTION 9Hotspot QuestionA database named DB2 uses the InMemory query mode. Users frequently run the following query:You need to configure SQL Server Profiler to determine why the query is performing poorly.Which three event should you monitor on the SQL Server Profiler trace events configuration page? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.Answer: Explanation:By using SQL Profiler, you can intercept two classes of trace events from Analysis Services, DAX Query Plan and DirectQuery events, both generated by the DirectQuery engine. Here, in this scenario we have a DAX Query.DAX Query Plan events are generated by the DAX formula. By using the In-Memory mode, you store a copy of data in the xVelocity (VertiPaq) storage engine.Figure: This is how a query is executed by using In-Memory mode.
